Allow both >>*<< and »*«?
I'd really prefer we didn't. I'd much rather keep << and >> for other
things.
Or something similar '>>*'<<, [>*<], etc...
Much as I hate the notion of di- and trigraphs, this is a possibility.
Though I'd much rather we just allowed POD escapes (e.g. E<laquo> and E<raquo>)
in code.
And, yes, I'm aware that makes E<laquo>*E<raquo> incredibly ugly.
I'm rather *counting* on it, in fact ;-)
